FFAP5033W1
Frigidaire FFAP5033W1 Pump Dehumidifier Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Pump that runs but does not move water
- Bucket that fills when the pump should drain it
- Gurgling or loud pump noise
- Water on the floor near the discharge hose
The FFAP5033W1 is a 50-pint high humidity Frigidaire dehumidifier with a built-in pump, so it can send water through a hose to a sink or a window instead of filling a bucket. It is an older model, and the pump is the part that sets it apart for service.
If the pump is running but water is still collecting in the bucket, we check the pump itself, the float that triggers it and the discharge hose for kinks, clogs or a hose that rises too high. We also check the hose connection for leaks. Beyond the pump, we look at the filter, the coil and the humidity control like any other dehumidifier.
Pump parts for an older unit have to be worth the money, and we weigh that with you. We write down the price before starting, take the model and serial from the data label so the pump or float matches, and warrant our work for 30 days.

Why does my pump dehumidifier still fill the bucket?
The pump may not be starting, the float may be stuck or the discharge hose may be blocked or kinked. We test the float and the pump, then run water through the hose to find the restriction.
How high can the pump push the water?
That depends on the unit and its hose, so we do not guess. If the drain is high or far away, we check the hose run and tell you whether the pump is being asked to do too much.
Why is my dehumidifier pump so loud?
A pump that runs dry, draws air or has debris in it can be noisy. We check the water level, the hose and the pump housing, and quote a replacement only if the pump itself is worn.
